  • I Feel the Need…
    44 AUSTRALIAN SAILING AUGUST-SEPTEMBER 2017 MYSAILING.COM.AU 45 SPORTSBOATS BETH MORLEY SPORTSAILINGPHOTOGRAPHY.COM SPORTS BOATS I FEEL THE NEED… ANDREW YORK LOOKS AT THE DEVELOPMENT OF SPORTSBOATS AND HOW THEY NEED TO BE SAILED IT was in the early years of this century that sports boats broke away from their trailer-sailer forebears. A more competitive group of owners started adding sail area and stripping out accommodation from their boats. Most people’s perception of a sports boat is a trailerable sailing boat with masses of sail area. While this was the genesis of sports boats there has been a gradual change. It became evident that sports boats needed to form their own separate group. ASBA was founded in 2007 by Cameron Rae, Mark Roberts and Richard Parkes. They wanted a more scientific handicapping system than had been employed in the past. In 2008 the Sportsboat Measurement System (SMS) was put in place by a body independent to ASBA. It was created by the same people who formulated the Australian Measurement System (AMS) in 1997. Sports boat racing has flourished across Australia under the ASBA banner, with the SMS rule encouraging high performance designs without the penalties that existed under other systems. Large asymmetrical spinnakers, in particular, are not penalised as harshly in the rating as the working sail area is, so that is why you see the sports boats with clouds of sails downwind. In Australia sports boats are defined as being between 5.8m and 8.5m in length and no more than 3.5m wide including hiking racks.

  • Lake Tahoe PHRF Frequently Asked Questions
    Lake Tahoe PHRF Frequently Asked Questions What is PHRF? Performance Handicap Racing Formula (PHRF) is a commonly used handicapping system for the sport of sailboat racing. Its purpose is to provide a means for unlike boats to compete equitably. Thus, the Tahoe Yacht Club uses PHRF for all its racing except one-design racing of identical boats such as Lasers and Melges 24s. To implement PHRF racing at Lake Tahoe, the Tahoe Yacht Club board of directors has established a PHRF committee in accordance with guidelines provided by the national authority https://www.ussailing.org/competition/offshore/phrf/. The Lake Tahoe PHRF committee often consults with the national committee on particular boat handicaps and other race-related matters. What are the PHRF ratings for Lake Tahoe? The PHRF ratings for Lake Tahoe are published on the Tahoe Yacht Club Web site, www.tahoeyc.com . These ratings are reviewed and updated as necessary. As the Lake Tahoe ratings are published, other yacht clubs and race organizers may use these as they wish. Also, PHRF committees in other venues frequently use the Lake Tahoe ratings a basis for their own. Who sets PHRF ratings? The Lake Tahoe PHRF Committee consists of from five to seven committee members. The chair is appointed by TYC Commodore, and the chairmanship renews automatically each year until changed by the then current Commodore. The chair of the PHRF committee appoints each committee member, and these memberships renew automatically until changed by the PHRF chair. How are PHRF ratings established? For each boat type, the Lake Tahoe PHRF committee establishes a rating in seconds per mile.

  • 2019 One Design Classes and Sailor Survey
    2019 One Design Classes and Sailor Survey [email protected] One Design Classes and Sailor Survey One Design sailing is a critical and fundamental part of our sport. In late October 2019, US Sailing put together a survey for One Design class associations and sailors to see how we can better serve this important constituency. The survey was sent via email, as a link placed on our website and through other USSA Social media channels. The survey was sent to our US Sailing members, class associations and organizations, and made available to any constituent that noted One-Design sailing in their profile. Some interesting observations: • Answers are based on respondents’ perception of or actual experience with US Sailing. • 623 unique comments were received from survey respondents and grouped into “Response Types” for sorting purposes • When reviewing data, please note that “OTHER” Comments are as equally important as those called out in a specific area, like Insurance, Administration, etc. • The majority of respondents are currently or have been members of US Sailing for more than 5 years, and many sail in multiple One-Design classes • About 1/5 of the OD respondents serve(d) as an officer of their primary OD class; 80% were owner/drivers of their primary OD class; and more than 60% were members of their primary OD class association. • Respondents to the survey were most highly concentrated on the East and West coasts, followed by the Mid- West and Texas – though we did have representation from 42 states, plus Puerto Rico and Canada. • Most respondents were male.

Lanelle Montgomery I recently went on a camping trip with a couple of friends whom I have known for twenty years or so dating from my earliest days at the Austin Yacht Club. As happens when old friends get together, we reminisced about things we had done years ago though it seems like they happened only yesterday. On the way home, it occurred to me that most of my closest and dearest friends are people I have met over the years through A YC activities. Some of these friends are more special to me than many of my blood relatives. Ifl were to bet, I would wager that many other people feel the same way about people they know or have known from the Club. Actually, we are in many ways a big, extended family.
